Ground observations of precipitation types

Every day, volunteers across the country report rainfall, hail, and snowfall through the
CoCoRaHS network. Using these community observations, we automatically generate
an up-to-date precipitation map and dataset helping visualize where and which type of
precipitation occurred, updated twice daily at 11:00 AM and 11:00 PM CST.
